I met an old friend yesterday

That friend is a feeling.

The feeling of being sucker punched in the pit of your stomach. So hard that the esophagus cannot react. You are left with an open mouth, stooping, though staggered a bit, but still standing somehow. Gasping for breath.

Having met this friend several times in the past, I thought I could handle it. God has his plans for me. He keeps me running into my friend just as I begin to forget him.

Oh, so touching, I felt like this is my own story. When they run into you, you run away from them, when you run into them they run away from you. This is the irony of life. Universe is doing it's job, of bumping into each other time and again. And when I think why I do this, the answer is it has always been my fear that came my way.
I just forgot that this is not my blog.

But...Why do you want to forget your friend (in other words running away from your feelings), what is coming in your way, your ego, arrogance or you are cold ?
Is this question too personal

Question is not personal. I don't run away from all of my feelings. It's a
multitude of things. If we meet for a drink ever I could explain better.

I think it's just the way I am. Stubborn. Ego. Loyal. But God knows I hate this feeling.

Thanks for dropping by.
